subheading: Before You Begin:

One ounce of ancho chiles is approximately two or three chiles; ½ ounce of guajillo chiles is about three or four chiles. Use more or fewer chipotle chiles depending on your desired level of spiciness. We like using a mix of pinto, black, and red kidney beans here, but you can use all of one type or any combination of the three. Do not substitute hulled, hull-less, quick-cooking, or presteamed barley in this recipe (read the ingredient list on the package to determine this). Serve the chili with any of the traditional garnishes: lime wedges, sour cream, diced avocado, chopped red onion, and shredded Monterey Jack or cheddar cheese.
